I’ll be running the course with Chris Shevlin, and it’s aimed at PR consultancies and practitioners throughout the UK and beyond.

In their writing, more and more organisations are moving away from the traditional formal and corporate tone of voice. Instead they want to write in a way that matches their brand. That usually means being more clear, direct and conversational. But how do you write that way? And how do you avoid going too far in the opposite direction? Our workshop shows delegates how to succeed through a simple three-step process, which Chris invented, called Who Do Know™.

Chris and I have been running this workshop, for various clients, for a number of years, so it’s great news that the PRCA wants us to deliver the course to its members in the UK and beyond.
